Facebook is where all the action is. You guys need to get with the program.... :) :)

Where on FaceBook? I have heard the same but haven't had any luck finding much, are there some groups that you can point me to?

This site used to be the go-to for anything Schiada.......seems like when the sections were combined into the "Etc." section, it lost a lot of traffic. It's a shame too. Some of us still enjoy those types of boats and the talent and quality workmanship on display. Maybe RD will go back to the way it was....

Not everyone is interested in cruising around on oversized polished beer cans with metal awnings. 😁

A tritoon with dual whackers is like a lowered minivan with a body kit to me...... I know every boat has its purpose but I wouldn’t be caught dead in some,but to each there own. Opinions are like assholes everyone has one......

I like all kinds of boats. V-dives are fun as hell but not one size fits all, especially now as the water is so torn up.

Even over 50, I'm not old enough to have one. I'll stick with my $900 Eliminator day cruiser. River friendly ditch pump.

V-drive guys are typically more motor head, hands on types that do most of their own work. Nostalgia, having a boat like the one you grew up in or wanted as a kid has meaning.
Spot on with this.

Is selling a schiada to then end up with a pontoon the equivalent of getting married, and the new wife makes you get rid of your hot rod or bro dozer and get a minivan? Hmmm.

There’s already a Vdrive section it was cool when there was a separate section for the different classic boat makes. Schiada guys don’t jive with spectra or Campbell guys and vice versa.

So not true, the only time the schiada guys get all butt hurt is when the topic comes up of why there isn’t any schiadas running in GN!

Then then get all pouty and have to go off

You don’t remember posting up when you bought your 24 and posting the progress of putting it together? Because I do and enjoyed seeing it, sorry if I “phrased” it wrong……..
